Today's Focus: Text Analysis

Let's explore the ideas behind your summer assignment readings!




Getting Started...

What else do we need to talk about on the syllabus?
Spin the Wheel- Let's get to know each other!


Mini-Lesson: thINK

  • What is a thINK?
  • While I usually allow quite a bit of student choice in a thINK, this time I want to use this writing to assess your understanding of the summer assignment. Choose one of the focus questions presented for one of the texts to use as your prompt for this thINK.
  • We don't have blogs just yet, so begin by writing this on notebook paper today. I have printed several examples of thINKs for you!
